Jazz at the Sculpture Garden
|
7/24/2009
|
Come join us for Jazz in the Sculpture Garden. This is a DC favorite during the beautiful summer weather. The group Young Lions (fusion rock/jazz) will be playing that night and with that name, I'm sure they are awesome. Please bring any blankets or food for yourself or to share. Consider this a Friday night picnic, so bring food, games (cards, Catchphrase, etc) and we will all have a good time. Diana will get there early to reserve a spot on the grass in the Sculpture Garden. E-mail dcyp.social@gmail.com for any questions or to RSVP. Please let Diana know if you can come so she knows how big of a spot to reserve!
This promises to be a good time! Metro accessible from Gallery Place/Chinatown and Archives/Navy Memorial.

Sunday Suppers
|
8/16/2009
|
Sunday Suppers is an organization that sets up tables and chairs on the sidewalk at several parks in DC, pushes Motown, Soul and R&B out big speakers and shares an hour and 15 minutes visiting with people at each site, providing a warm meal. As important as the food and clothing we provide are, they are secondary to the real heart of the program:
sharing friendship with the people we serve and establishing relationships that continue from week to week.
We will be getting together beforehand to make soup, sandwiches and hard-boiled eggs. The location is TBD. Once we confirm the location, we will post here. Do not feel threatened by the duration of the event. Join us for 15 minutes or 5 hours -- we need all the help we can get.
For more information or to sign up, please email us at dcyp.service@gmail.com.
Hope you can join us!

DCPS Beautification Day was established in 2005 as the official day for a citywide "spruce up" of all DC public school buildings and front grounds in preparation for the opening of schools.
We will be volunteering at a local school. We requested to be placed at Cardozo Senior High School. Once that is confirmed, we will post here.
